The 2023 KDOT Mobile LiDAR Project commissioned data collection of the Kansas State Highway System using vehicle-based LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and photography. Following collection, these data were used to extract a list of deliverable geographic information systems (GIS) roadway asset datasets according to KDOT's specifications.
KDOT selected Cyclomedia to conduct the data collection and extraction, the same vendor responsible for the previous (2021) project. Data collection began on May 16th, 2023, and ended on August 27th, 2023. KDOT received the requested GIS datasets following the completion of data extraction and quality control in February 2024.
This site is devoted to making the GIS data extracts from the 2021 and 2023 projects available to KDOT staff and beyond. You can explore all the data in one place on KanPlan using the following link:
